How do we know that Christ died for sinners?

Answered in 4 sources

We know Christ died for sinners as Romans 5:8 affirms that while we were still sinners, Christ demonstrated His love by dying for us.

The certainty that Christ died for sinners is rooted in biblical declaration. Romans 5:8 specifically states that God demonstrated His love by allowing Christ to die for us while we were yet sinners. This reveals the unconditional nature of God’s grace, showing that salvation is not dependent on our worth but on Christ’s sacrifice. Furthermore, the scripture makes it clear that none of us could satisfy divine justice, thus necessitating a perfect Savior. Christ's substitutionary atonement is effectively for those who recognize their sinful nature and inability to save themselves.
